Keeladi in Tamil Nadu Harappa like excavations
The mound where we are excavating is of 3.5 km circumference in 80 acres of private agricultural land. We are finding structure after structure of the habitation site, the first of its kind in Tamil Nadu. It could be a huge urban settlement of independent civilisation on the banks of the Vaigai..... The excavation is lending much credence to the narrative in Sangam literature that throws light on the ancient Tamil way of life. The literature speaks volumes about the public and personal lives of rulers and the people of Tamil Nadu some 2000 or more years ago.

According to ASI officials, the ancient settlement at the village, which was on the highway travelled by traders all over the world once, had an underground drainage system which was on par with the Harappan system. The sewage drains had been laid with "baked clay pipe lines".

Which media talks about this? except Timesnow...and the Deccan Chronicle...Did any TV talk about this?
When will these come to the text books of school children to know the history?
Which film maker is talking about these glorious past of this land to get inspired and learn lessons?
Should we allow our histories to be written by English historians to be written as Stories?
